Results and discussion

Self-heating substances / mixtures
Key result
Test procedure:
100 mm sample cube at 140°C
Result:
negative outcome (no effect observed)

Any other information on results incl. tables

 No spontaneous ignition occurred and only a slight exothermic effect of the test item was observed. It demonstrated that the test item is “not a self-heating substance”. According to the UN guideline, no further testing is required.

 

After the experiment, the test item had turned into a red/brown (molten) residue and was partially collected in a container that was placed below the cube. It indicated that the test item had molten and decomposed and/or reacted during the experiment.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified based on GHS or CLP criteria
Conclusions:
The substance is not a self-heating substance.
Executive summary:

In a GLP study according to UN Test N.4, a negative result was obtained using a 10x10x10 cm sample cube at 140°C. From this it was concluded that the substance is not a self-heating substance.
